With her hand constantly turning the pages, the dazzling array of cakes made the little one's eyes dazzled. Chi Yuan, as if on cue, began to use a bib to wipe the little one's drooling mouth that kept flowing.
It smells so good! The cake smells so good!
Even through the thick screen, the little one could almost smell the cake, and Dad Chi had already instinctively started wiping the child's mouth with a bib.
"Waaaaah..."
The little brat waved his hands, trying to free his mouth from his father's grasp. Noticing the brat's struggle, Chi Yuan took a few steps back.
"Okay, okay, Daddy will wipe your drool clean. We need to be clean babies."
"Come on, little one, which one do you like? We're having cake tonight."
Shen Yulou waved his phone in front of his son, but the little boy raised his hand and tried hard to show his father one finger.
"Ah! Ah ah!"
One, this is one!
The little one proudly raised his head, waiting for his fathers' praise.
"Yes, little one is really amazing, this is number one."
"So, baby, tell Daddy, what's your absolute favorite cake?"
To make sure the baby could see clearly, Shen Yulou scrolled through the photos one by one, constantly zooming in on the details.
Fortunately, his phone has a foldable screen, and the screen is big enough when unfolded.
"This one has colorful flowers and beads."
The little one nodded.
"This chocolate bear?"
The little one nodded.
"These all belong to Guoguo?"
The little one nodded.
The little one didn't speak, the little one just kept nodding, because the little one liked everything and wanted to eat every kind of cake.
"Oh? Baby likes so many cakes? But we can only eat one, what should we do?"
The fathers pretended to be troubled and asked the little boy, hoping he could come up with a good solution.
What should we do?
Unexpectedly, the little boy, just like his fathers, frowned and tilted his head to look at them, his eyes filled with even more confusion than the fathers'.
Seeing their children like this, the fathers finally couldn't keep their expressions in check and chuckled softly, heads close together.
Their child is so cute.
Shen Yulou flicked the little guy's soft soles, and the little guy twitched his feet and laughed with a "Ah-gu" sound, then turned around to burrow into his father Chi's arms.
"I want an eight-inch custom cake, divided into four parts, with blueberry jam filling for both the cake base and the filling."
"Then one is decorated with blue and pink butter flowers and pearls, one with fruit, one with this chocolate bear, and the last one has our names written on it with a white chocolate name tag."
With his mind racing, Shen Yulou quickly came up with an idea. He turned to Chi Yuan for his opinion, and Chi Yuan blinked, thinking of the baby in his arms.
For such a young child, it's best not to give them so much sweet jam, as the additives are difficult for their stomach to digest.
"Is it okay if half of the cake base is left unfilled? It's also fine if the cake surface is slightly uneven and tilted at the end."
"Also, can yam be used to make cake cream?"
The boss looked hesitant at the numerous conditions, so Shen Yulou quickly added, "No matter the price, we can offer a high price."
"I'm sorry, we probably can't do that, because I'm the one who makes most of the cakes at this bakery."
"There are other pre-ordered orders today, but your order takes longer to process, so I might not be able to finish it today."
After thinking about it, the boss still declined with an apologetic expression.
"Okay, thank you. It's no trouble at all. Sorry to bother you."
Shen Yulou nodded, her face showing no displeasure, and still smiled sweetly as she led the slightly regretful Chi Yuan out of the cake shop.
Listening to the wind chimes at the cake shop's door, Chi Yuan thought for a moment and decided to use his financial resources and connections to contact a more senior pastry chef to speed up the production.
Oh, the Vesla family seems to have a pastry chef... I'll ask my parents to lend him one.
Just then, a hand reached out from the side, interrupting Chi Yuan's action of taking out his phone. Chi Yuan turned his head and saw Shen Yulou with an inscrutable expression.
"Nothing made by others can be as reassuring as something made by yourself. I'll make it, and it'll be delicious."
Shen Yulou patted his chest and guaranteed, then, amidst Chi Yuan's skeptical gaze, dragged him off to buy raw materials.
"Da ah... Da ah..."
The baby was sitting in the stroller, looking up and seeing so many big people walking towards them, so very big…
The little one couldn't see their faces clearly, but their legs were so tall! It wasn't until the dads turned him around and he faced them directly that he realized the dads were the same size.
As the little boy watched, he got tired and started pecking at his head. Shen Yulou gently supported the back of his head and laid him down.
The little one wrapped its hands and feet around its cashmere blanket, subconsciously hugged the little hamster and nibbled at it a few times, then drifted off to sleep, half-asleep and listening to the sounds around it.
...
"Sweetie, wake up, we're going to eat cake!"
The fathers' gentle voices woke the sleeping baby. The little one had barely opened his eyes when he saw his fathers' smiling faces in front of him.
Familiar, fragrant hands appeared in the baby's field of vision, waving, and the baby smiled, being hugged and kissed by his fathers.
Dads always have a comforting scent that makes their babies feel at ease. The baby, nestled in his father's arms, quietly looks at his toes, his mind still not fully awake, unaware of why his toes are moving.
But the feet did move.
The fathers led their children into a sparkling world. The candlelight on the table quickly caught the children's attention, and the flickering light reflected the shapes of the flowers on the cake.
"Baby, look, it's cake! The cakes Daddy made are the most delicious!"
